Greetings,
I’m Captain Kevin, and I’m thrilled to welcome you aboard "Just Right." I'm excited to offer you a unique opportunity to indulge in my passion for boating with a personalized boating boutique charter experience on Lake Michigan, the Chicago River, or even dockside.
Are you ready for an unforgettable experience?
How about a summer sunset cruise?
Or a fun-filled afternoon at the Playpen or a bachelorette gathering?
Fancy viewing fireworks by Navy Pier?
Maybe you'd like an early morning breakfast with mimosas, enjoying the magnificent sunrise over Lake Michigan? The possibilities are endless!
You can expect the pinnacle of professionalism, promptness, and pleasure. When your boutique charter concludes, you’ll be able to say, "Everything was JUST RIGHT!"
